The World's Will grew increasingly angered and frustrated as she was confronted by Flora's words, which impacted the entire world of Gods!

"N-No… You got it all wrong, F-Flora!" she cried.

"I am the first Supreme Goddess… I am also a member of the old race of humans, the ones that struggled to fight you, an alien existence that threatened our world millions of years ago. You destroyed our civilization, slaughtered our people mercilessly, and stole our world, making it yours… Do you think I have any consideration towards a monster like you? You're the one that started it all!" roared Flora, the entire world shook!

The truth was revealed!

"What?"

"The Supreme… WHAT DID SHE SAID?!"

"The World before… everything?"

"The Ancient Human Civilization before the Cultivation Era. I see… So it existed."

"This world… was once a world named Earth." Said Flora.

Flora dropped the bombshell! All the Gods were lech speechless, as she revealed a truth that not even, I fully knew about. I had many clues accumulated and knowledge I learned here and there, but I was never truly given the entire answer behind this all.

But now, Flora, the first Supreme Goddess and also perhaps the last survivor from the era before the World's Will were to even reach this planet was revealing the complete truth!

"Indeed. I am perhaps the last survivor from the human civilization before the fall before our last remnants flew into outer space after she took everything away from us. I am tired of pretending that things are fine. My power has increased ever since that time you suppressed us all and forced us to cooperate! Everyone, the world was not shattered due to the overuse of power…" said Flora.

"What?!" asked the Worlds' Will, suddenly panicking!

"The World was shattered into pieces by her own fault!" roared Flora, pointing at the World's Will!

"Back then, Earth was a planet flourishing with life. We humans lived in there and prospered as a society that had survived many wars, we were finally coming together after so many differences separated us in the past, we developed technology without magic, and the spatial era began. Nonetheless, we were unable to completely enjoy our new era of peace and space exploration as the first living being outside of Earth, we contacted was her… a gigantic entity the size of the moon, the only answers we got from her when we tried to contact her was strange roars. She wasn't even a person as she treats herself as, but a monster, a mindless monster!" roared Flora.

"Gasp!"

All the people gasped, me included.

"Stop with this nonsense, Flora! I am the World's Will! You cannot lie about me in such a manner! Do you desire to go against my will, against the will of the world!?" roared the World's Will.

"You call yourself "The world" yet you are merely an alien that parasitized in our planet. You filled it with your magic power and feed on its core for all this time. You were merely feeding on our planet for generations, eons! The last humans that decided to stay in the world were mutated, we were mutated by these streams of energies, and we managed to find a way to fight against the countless monsters that her presence created. We had to survive in an apocalyptic era for generations while cultivating with every tiny bit we had… Her monstrous nature never stopped, of course, she continued trying to get rid of us for year. But we continued pushing back. Until finally, I and some others ascended and became Living Deities…" said Flora.

"Stop talking! You cannot say such things to the world!!!" roared the World's Will.

"We used the divine power we acquired by stealing it from her and we finally managed to fight back against the monsters. We used our divine power to cleanse the world of these creatures until she finally fell back and hid in the depths of the world's core, while the world in the surface mutated into incredible sizes, the gravity was increased, and even the world size became bigger… Genesis used to be but 20 times less big than it was when it shattered. And this was the phenomenon I call… Essence Inflation! Due to her malevolent assimilation and production of energies, she continuously made the world inflate like a balloon with so much essence!" said Flora.

Wow, that actually makes sense… Then… the world was indeed a Parallel Earth with its same sizes and all, but was made into a gigantic planet of cultivation due to the inflation it had through the constant overflowing streams of energies!

And then… it shattered not because of the war between Gods…

"I do admit that us Gods were greedy back then, as time went by everyone grew too accustomed to our wild world, we devoured one another to survive, we fought one another for resources, it was a wild world like you could never get to know, young generations. When all of us Supremes had enough, we began to battle for the territories with our armies, although half of them, including me, were forced by her… her wonderful plan was to force us to kill each other so she wouldn't have as many ants festering over her as much! But the world shattered not because of our war, which happened in space itself, but due to her! HER!" roared Flora.

"She inflated the world to the point of no return, many times we tried to stop her, many times we tried to reverse things with the other Supremes, but half of them were manipulated by her into becoming our enemies, and the other half of us were blackmailed and forced into a war… Such frustration… I don't have a day when I don't remember how much I fucking despise you!" roared Flora.

"In the middle of our forced war, she suddenly realized the world was shattering. She tried to stop it but at the end, the shell broke apart and so did a part of the World's Origin Core. 99% of all those present were made to believe that it was somehow our fault, but it was her fault, she did this to the world… to… my world." Sighed Flora.

"After that, she forced us to cooperate. She used the Laws she had forged through all these years while resting and made us part of such laws, bound to this world, we had to reconstruct it for her, we worked all together to remade it from zero… Genesis, the World Of Realms, was born then." Said Flora.

"And she has been keep hiding within this entire place, controlling us all. But some time ago that we had grown too strong for her to handle us, and she herself is growing weak, old, and pathetic. The prophecy of Kireina emerged one day, and since then we had been hoping for one day that the Supreme of Chaos emerged… Before meeting her and before she brought back my lost child, I was disinterested in everything, I had no plan of doing anything, I had long ago given up… But now I've realized that I cannot merely slack off if I have this much power. And Kireina, we must help her… She's the key to saving all of us from this demonic being, the World's Will! Kireina, the Supreme Goddess of Primordial Chaos and Eternal Demise is the savior that we had been waiting this whole time, people!"

"OOOOOHHH!"

"UUUOOHHHH!"

"S-SHE'S RIGHT!"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT…"

"The world…"

"Everything…"

"So this is the truth!"

The Gods quickly believed her words and realized the truth, and so do I.

Wow, what a ride this has been. Flora, I own you a lot now.

"If you are not willing to help Kireina, you are not even worthy of being called a god. Might as well call yourselves drones! We are Gods because we are the ones that shall rule our world, not the world itself… not this… alien! World's Will, you've been more than exposed, you pathetic old hag. Anyone that does not join us now, you will become the enemy of three Venerables, but feel free to run beneath the foot of the world's will." Said Aura.

With these last words from the Supreme of Star Ocean, the entire place shook, the dimension maintained by the system named the Interdimensional Merchant Shop started to tremble out of the excited screams of the many gods of this world.

Everything was coming together now. The truth was revealed and the World's Will was exposed. She fell silent and suddenly spoke after a while.

"You're all… parasites… Don't get too cocky… I will assimilate all of you back to my own… You STOLE my power! All of your power is mine! That I am weakening is because you absorbed it! And I am going to take BACK WHAT BELOGNS TO ME! Alright! Very well then, Kireina, Flora, Aura! Let's play! War will it be!" she roared. I had never heard her as angered as now, and she just called everyone a parasite, yikes.

"Well, see ya sis." I said.

"Tch…!"

She disappeared after I told her that… Hahaha… HAHAHAHA!

I loved it!

So this is the world we live in huh? Pretty fucking wild. I can't believe I am actually living in this world now.

It is all so crazy, yet it fits perfectly. Since the beginning that the pieces were right there, the clues spread across the table, right before my eyes. Since the very beginning that this World's Will was the culprit behind the Ragnarök, behind this entire shitshow…

Behind this amazing world of fantasy that once used to be a future of a parallel Earth…

I wonder how were Flora's experiences back then… I wish she could go on more details in that regard. How was that society and all…

Oh well, things will come together as we go on. There are still many things left to do, so we might as well get going.

"Alright then, we are done here. I am getting showered with divine messages guys, so I'll leave you for now." I said.

"Take care." Said Flora.

"We can come visit anytime." Said Aura.

"Alright, let's have dinner together after a few hours then."

As I said that, I went back to my divine realm and sent a clone outside my divine realm.

I enhanced it with a lot of speed and used Voidspace Hopping too to reach the depths of the ocean.

There, I found a gigantic and fat whale-kin man sleeping soundly.

He woke up when I emerged, looking at me with his black eyes.

"Hello, I came to pickup a little thing I forgot."

"WRAAAAAGGH!"

He roared angrily at me, I waved my hand as darkness encompassed his entire body, he disappeared in an instant.

Realm Menace of Sloth Slain!

And with that… the last Sin left was acquired.
